A change In Life

Well I have decided it's time for a career change. Yes, while I started the publications from scratch.......put all my blood and sweat into it.......it's time for mommy to let her little baby fly on it's own. Yes, I am going to leave the publications (let my partner and husband run them) and I am in search of another position. Life is very stable at home. The children will be fine and my husband will be local to take care of any issues that may arise. So I am off to pursue a new future and a new career.

You see, I want to follow my dream. I want to move on to a position that entails the health care industry. I have extensive media experience, public relations experience, sales experience and I am an excellent communicator. I love people. I love interacting with people and I love helping worthy causes. Hopefully I can find a position that takes advantage of all my positive traits as well as my desire to help others. Finding a position like that will be a win/win for myself and the company I work for.

So today, I spent the day looking for the perfect job. The jobs I am submitting resumes to are positions that I know I can succeed at and would love. I'm sure you know from my blog, when I put my mind to something, there is no stopping me. To my surprise, there were a few positions out there that I know I would LOVE to do. Resumes have been sent out and now if I can just get my foot in the door.

I'm not tooting my own horn (okay, I am here) but I know that if they met me --my enthusiasm, dedication and motivation would win them over. So hopefully I will be able to get the interview.

Great news!! The UCP Board of Directors has nominated me for consideration to be on their Board. I am so excited and this is truly a dream come true for me. I'm not on yet.......but I feel that I have a very good chance of becoming a Board Member (especially since the President of the Board and the Executive Director are both in my corner and nominated me).

So, things are changing around here. But change is good! And I am looking forward to new changes and challenges!!

Wish me luck!!
